Message: [QUOTE="Dillon77, post: 2907865, member: 6620"] Any news on [B]Promise Taylor[/B], the sophomore center who transferred from Ole Miss? She also put in for a waiver. And, interestingly (at least from my perspective), she was the one I thought we'd hear about first because her request would involve a coaching change at her previous school. (Matt Insell, who recruited her, was the coach let go at Mississippi. Ironically, he's now an assistant at Middle Tennessee State for his father where Tenn. transfer Anastasia Hayes just announced she's attending. Insell and his dad both recruited Hayes out of high school.) The NCAA has seemingly been open to approving some waiver requests from players who have ultimately left programs that have had shake-ups in the coaching staffs, e.g.: Natalie Romeo (to Washington) and Jessica Shepard to (Notre Dame), both from Nebraska; and, Chatrice White (to FSU) from Illinois. All three athletes seemingly got an "atta' girl" from their former schools, as well. That's why I thought Taylor might have a better chance than Espinoza-Hunter. The opaque (heck, metal) curtain that the NCAA keeps on these applications is frustrating for overall fans, to say the least in part because of the "what really matters" aspect is ???. The NCAA would be better served to reexamine this process and -- at the very least -- have a very discernible lists of factors that will be examined and weighed. [/QUOTE]
